Objectives: Salidroside (SAL), an active ingredient purified from the medicinal plant Rhodiola rosea, has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anticancer, and neuroprotective properties. The study aims to examine SAL's protective role in liver damage brought on by lipopolysaccharide (LPS).

Materials And Methods: Six to eight-week-old male C57BL/6 wild-type mice were intraperitoneally treated with 10 mg/kg LPS for 24 hr and 50 mg/kg SAL two hours before LPS administration.

A drug-drug cocrystal created with two antithrombotic-active ingredients from herbs, honokiol (HON) and ligustrazine (TMP, 1:1), was synthesized and characterized. The structure of HON-TMP (1:1) was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Then co-amorphous HON-TMP was prepared by honey-assisted grinding, which was inspired by a grinding process for a Chinese patent medicine-Shijunzi honey pill.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a common clinical disease with high mortality. Rujin Jiedu powder (RJJD) has been clinically utilized for the treatment of ALI in China, but the active constituents in RJJD and its protective mechanisms against ALI are still unclear. ALI mice were established by intraperitoneal injection of LPS to test the effectiveness of RJJD in treating ALI.

Article Synopsis
  • Rhein is commonly used in China to treat inflammation, but its effects on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) were not well-studied until this research.
  • The study conducted experiments on rats and AR42J cells to investigate rhein's protective effects and identified its influence on the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.
  • Results showed that rhein significantly reduced inflammation markers, alleviated pancreatic damage, and decreased amylase levels, indicating a potential therapeutic role against SAP through modulation of JAK2/STAT3.
